What is recorded here

Four-arch limestone road bridge, built c.1820, over Killaclougher River. Round arches having cut limestone voussoirs to arch rings, and random rubble stone to spandrels and walls. Triangular ashlar cutwaters to east, cement piers supporting pipe work to west. Random rubble stone parapets with half-round rubble copings. Random rubble stone walls leading to bridge from adjacent fields.
This simple stone bridge is still in use as a road bridge and carries traffic over the Killaclougher River. Its uncomplicated detailing and use of local stone adds to its attractive appearance.
